00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 3: Aren't they going out of business anyway?

48
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:10,880

00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 2: They're very very they're great partners of ours, Allex. Because

00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:20,440

53
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 2: inclusive Saint Patrick's Day, Yes parade. And I was telling

54
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 2: people earlier just because LGBTQ organizations are invited to participate

55
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 2: doesn't mean it's a gay parade. It's a parade for everyone, right.

56
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 3: Exactly, it's not a gay parade. So the people that

57
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 3: keep on thinking that, get that out of your head.

58
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 3: First of all, it's just everybody celebrating Saint Patrick's Day,

59
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 3: the heritage, the culture, you know, and just to have

60
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,279
Speaker 3: a good time. That's what it's about. He watched seventeenth

61
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 3: on Staten Island. That's the parade you want.

62
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 4: To be at.

63
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: I know Garrett'll be there. I cannot wait.

64
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 2: Garrett is like, I mean, I don't think any of

65
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 2: our friends are as excited as Garrett. By Alex, Seriously,

66
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 2: he's so excited.

67
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 5: Tell him why the excitement that this parade will bring

68
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 5: because there's been a cloud of just curmudgeon people on

69
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 5: Staten Island over the past like a dozen years that

70
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 5: that won't let everyone celebrate because of just old school

71
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 5: way of thinking. Finally, you guys have brought that back

72
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 5: to Staten Island, and I think that will bring such

73
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 5: excitement and joy up and down Forest Avenue. My friends

74
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 5: own bars and coffee shops and they are so excited

75
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 5: that they can open the doors and finally just celebrate

76
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 5: and not have any type of dark cloud hanging over

77
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 5: their head.

78
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: There you go.

79
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 3: You know the funny thing. The other parade that's happening

80
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 3: this weekend, they wouldn't let us. The person in charge,

81
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 3: wouldn't even shake my hand because I'm gay, wouldn't even

82
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 3: have a meeting with us because we're gay. And the

83
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 3: fact is, you know, there's all schools, organizations, businesses, everything

84
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 3: that could march behind their banner, but just because we're gay,

85
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 3: we not have a gay banner and watch behind exactly,

86
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 3: you know. And and the person that's running it, they

87
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 3: should be ashamed of themselves. Well, and people that go

88
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 3: to it. You know whatn't you just supporting that exactly?

89
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 2: Well, look, we're very proud of you. And by the way,

90
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 2: if you go to SI Live, there's a great story

91
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 2: about Alex's grandmother who was a business owner and bar

92
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: owner on Stettanna for a thousand years, and of course

93
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: she's no longer with us, but in spirit she would

94
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 2: be so proud to see what her grandson has done.

95
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 4: And we're we're all so gad Alex Saint Patti's Day,

96
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 4: the parade was always a big event at Hbar, and

97
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 4: she would give out corned beef and cabbage sandwiches Irish

98
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 4: coffees and they would pull her out of the bar

99
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 4: to take pictures with her in the middle.

100
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,560
